Internet Filtering and Parental Control at Home
Our school Internet filtering does not extend outside the school network. The best approach for families who would likeĀ Internet filtering at home would be to use parental controls on their router provided by their Internet provider. Using this approach would eliminate the need to install and manage any additional software on school devices going home.
For parents who would like to pursue this option, here are some helpful links:
